You head inside and by some stroke of fortune, it's a lull right now.
It's five minutes until they'll be back with you, leaving you with a little time to kill.
In the interim, you call Gareth to see where he and Holly are.
As it happens, he and Holly are just finishing up doing some shopping.
++"So, what are we going to do next?"++ Gareth asks.
"Well, for tonight, how about we go have dinner at the hotel and discuss that with Jean and her group?" You suggest.
++"Oh, that sounds good."++ Gareth agrees, noticeably brightening.
You don't quite hear the conversation he has with Holly, but it seems that she's in agreement.
++"Yeah, that sounds like a plan."++ He confirms.
"Cool, I'll let Jean know." You assure, before you say your goodbyes and hang up before shooting Jean a message to the same effect.
She's not long in replying and gives you a meeting time of six o'clock, which you forward to Gareth.
This doesn't give you that much time.
Once you've collected Rascal and Volta, you go and shower, before grabbing a fresh change of clothes, before settling down to wait while Gareth and Holly do the same.
While you're waiting, using the time to do some light reading, you spy Martha across the way doing likewise, roundly ignoring a young man who's trying and failing to hit on her.
She waves, the guy looks around and then scowls at you.
